inaccurate exported data

[yellowTrader]

Hello, I just noticed the value of exported data doesn't match the data shown on the charts.
Please take a look at the file attached and try to compare it with the corresponding chart, for example you notice the data in the text file for 10:45 AM for May 23rd doesn't match the value of the minute bar for same time.
Thank you.

Hello yellowTrader,
Thanks for writing in and I am happy to assist you.

Data exported from NinjaTrader will be in UTC timezone. Can you confirm, if you adjust the time of the exported data for UTC timezone, then are you getting the correct values.

Please let me know if I can assist you any further.

Hello Joydeep,
Thank you for your reply.
The values are correct if UTC time zone is used but since the data exported is usually used for further manipulation in other applications such as Excel , then how can one adjust it (within NT platform) so it would reflect the proper time zone?

Hello yellowTrader,
If you use the Export function in the Historical Data Manager then unfortunately the data will be in UTC format only.

As an alternative you can use this member submitted code to export data from the chart
